but what puzzles me about that direct sunlight recommendation: is it full-body (which is kinda impractical for most), shorts or trousers, how does it scale? Basically, 10-30 minutes just equates to what you should do anyway: go out and prac

maybe it doesn't need a SV-salary engineer to swap harddrives. Just pick (hehe) three good ones of the AMZ-warehouse people, train him/her and you'll have a very happy employee which is around fulltime (or three of them) and

I guess, you can operate a very good and featureful food delivery SaaS for a lot less if you skip GoogleAds, ridiculous mid 6 figure salaries (for a similar job in every place except SV) and building an exploratory machine learning arm to c

I'm not sure, where you live, but here (Europe) car dealers are generally in the kind of urban sprawl, where industry and shopping malls are located as well. And the typical lifestyle brands have a lot of show-rooms in inner cities as
